Plain Language Academies

Since starting what is now Plain Language Association International (PLAIN) , decades ago with Cheryl Stephens , #ISO standards are just one reason to Celebrate #International Plain Language Day. It's the greatest development for our profession: leading, unifying, and forward-thinking. Go for it, treat yourself to a plain language standard!
